Rebecca J. Sent on 12/27/2023Gianna is the planner to book!
We had absolutely zero stresses going into our wedding knowing Gianna was on top of everything. She was knowledgeable, direct, and responsive in all her communications with us. We can’t recommend her enough! -

Roxanne Sent on 11/19/2023Gianna is very sweet and helpful
We found Gianna as she was a preferred vendor through our venue. Her local vendor expertise and connections were unbelievably helpful! She was super knowledgeable about certain processes with other vendors we hired who she had previously worked with. She was was also able to source the exact chairs we wanted at a lower price than other vendors I had found! On top of this, she has her own warehouse of select decorative items we rented which she delivered, set up and teared down… all of this at a very reasonable price. She set up on the day of exactly how I envisioned, so I could not ask for anything more! -

Would hire again!
Gianna is just amazing! Our High Camp, Palisades Tahoe wedding went so smoothly thanks to her- we literally could not have done it without her and her team. Months later people are complimenting how smoothly our event went- all thanks to her and her team. She was hilarious and had an amazing attitude, and was totally game for whatever we wanted to do- so we could have our wedding our way. Her timeline was VERY thorough and she was able to coordinate the complicated venue timing with the photographer and the videographer and the wedding party so everyone was where they needed to be on time. She works with Palisades a lot and the staff there know her personally, which really helped. I had the most magical, stress free wedding weekend and I thank Wild and Lovely Events for that!

Becky Sent on 12/30/2023Gianna is amazing!!
Gianna is just awesome. We can’t recommend her more highly - she was reasonably priced, and so so helpful and went above and beyond! We hired her as a “day of” planner, but she provided advice and suggestions throughout the months before too. She was really fun and relatable, but always professional.
We had to change to our bad venue with less than 24 hours notice before the wedding. She was on top of it! Our original venue required very minimal decorations but the new one was pretty bare bones. She was able to magically find extra flowers and decorations and nicer chairs, as well as rearrange some of the things we’d already rented from her, and set everything up for us. She made a pretty stressful time go as smoothly as it could, and we are so grateful for her! -

Gianna and Jillian were upbeat, organized, and on it!! We so appreciated them both having a part in our day. Our day of coordinator, Jillian, did an excellent job of tackling day of challenges (including a venue change due to a thunderstorm) behind the scenes to ensure our day ran smoothly!! -

Lauren I. Sent on 06/28/2023Gianna is a HERO!
I cannot speak highly enough about Gianna! She is incredible and truly a hero! Gianna was our day-of coordinator for our wedding at River Highlands Ranch in Smartsville, CA, but she was so much more than a day-of coordinator. She helped to make rental orders, advised on décor choices, answered my millions of questions, and kept me calm throughout the entire planning (and day-of) chaos. Her relationships and experience with so many other vendors in the area is priceless, and her planning expertise and ability to herd the masses can’t be beat. The weeks leading up to our wedding in May, the weather flipped back and forth from rain to no rain, giving me plenty of anxiety. Sure enough, on the day of, it rained on and off and we kept switching from thinking we could do the ceremony outside to not. Thankfully, Gianna made the wise decision to have the ceremony inside—it poured throughout the entire ceremony and everyone would have been drenched if we were outside! But Gianna handled the stress and quick changes like the true pro she is and was completely unfazed by any of the challenges! Despite everything, she made sure we all had the times of our lives and the most memorable wedding day. If you’re getting married in the Grass Valley / Tahoe area, I highly recommend Gianna if you want your wedding to go absolutely perfectly, no matter what mother nature throws at you! -

Katie M. Sent on 01/12/2023Gianna is THE BEST coordinator anyone could ask for!
I really can't express how much Gianna meant to our wedding. From the very beginning she was a ROCKSTAR! We could not have had a better person to trust our day with. She was on top of over detail, followed through with vendors on our behalf, coordinated three (3!!!) live music groups, and was such a beaming light, for our wedding. She was there when we needed her most, and anticipated every thing before we even knew we needed something. She was beyond accommodating to all of our random requests, and made all of our guests feel welcomed. She really became such a special person to us throughout all of this, and I am so happy I booked her. Please please please hire her for your event! She's simply the best. -

Alexandra I. Sent on 11/07/2022The most AMAZING planner you will ever work with
Gianna is absolutely incredible.
My husband and I planned a spooky Halloween wedding and Gianna made our hodgepodge vision come to life. We sent her a bunch of photos of stuff we liked and she knocked it out of the park. People always say that something will go wrong on your wedding day, and I firmly believe thanks to Gianna, that our day was perfect and went so smoothly.
Another note, our venue, for an entire year were very unresponsive to any phone calls/emails and Gianna made sure to hound them to respond to us.
Hire her, you won't regret it! -

Marisela P. Sent on 11/11/2022Wedding was seamless
Gianna did a wonderful job decorating our venue for our wedding. Our original planner dropped out last minute, and she was more than happy to step up to the challenge. We were even able to rent decorations from her directly! The whole process was smooth, and she was very reassuring the day of our wedding. Her communication with vendors was very valuable, and I definitely recommend her services! My guests thought our wedding was fabulous. -

Nicole O. Sent on 10/21/2022Most amazing wedding coordinator!!!!
Gianna was recommended to me by my older sister to use for day of coordination for my wedding. She truly went above and beyond for me and my husband! we had multiple meetings to discus details I wanted and any vendors I hadn't secured yet. She had a million amazing recommendations for all the vendors for my wedding (Literally all but one of my vendors was off her preferred vendors list) Everyone who was part of my big day did an amazing job and Gianna did amazing! She completely made my vision come to life. There was not one second on my wedding day that I was worried about a single detail because I knew everything was in good hands! If you are getting married in or around the Nevada county area I can not recommend anyone better then wild and Lovely events to make that day amazing for you! -

We truly had the best experience (from start to finish) working with Gianna for our wedding this past July! I talked to several planners/coordinators before Gianna, but I knew she was the one immediately following our discovery call. I felt completely comfortable being myself; Gianna is just so REAL, relatable, and experienced with what she does.
She helped us finalize the details for our day of timeline, and was always helpful when I had a question or concern throughout the planning process. Her warehouse rentals & calligraphy were awesome too! We had a full-service venue but used her for the boxwood seating chart and boxwood photo backdrop - both of which were AMAZING additions to our wedding day (photos below!). Gianna also worked SO well with our venue coordinator Mercedes and the rest of the staff at Palisades Tahoe, so if you’re having your wedding there, this is your sign to book Gianna!
I was a very type-A bride, so I did nearly all the planning myself and was very involved in the details leading up to our wedding, but I also wanted to be able to enjoy our wedding day without any unnecessary stress. On our wedding weekend, it was so nice to be able to offload all my labeled bins full of signage, linens, guestbooks, etc. and trust that Gianna would handle the setup and make everything look nice - which she absolutely did! Then, she boxed everything up for us at the end of the reception and dropped it off in our room. It was worth every penny to not have to personally worry about the setup or getting our stuff back at the end of the night. It’s also priceless to not have friends and family feel responsible for helping at the end of the night (which we’ve done for several other weddings) when we just want to keep the party going!
My mom did not think we needed to hire a coordinator of any kind, but she was so impressed by how much value Gianna and her colleague added during our wedding weekend (rehearsal + wedding day). The day goes by so fast as it is, so save yourself any unnecessary stress and let Gianna handle it! You plan for your wedding day once, but she does it for a living, so her expertise and guidance throughout the process + especially on the day are sooo worth it. -

Total Rockstar !
Gianna was a rockstar for our wedding. She is super knowledgeable in terms of preparing and guiding your wedding day in advance. In terms of day of, I don't think I could have asked for anyone better. She is everywhere, taking care of the small things so you don't have to even think about it. Especially dealing with the after-wedding breakdown of the venue. You can trust that Gianna is taking care of all of your personal items and ensuring the vendors are out on time. This was especially important to me since we got married on top of Palisades which involved putting everything in a tram to go up and to come back down. Gianna is absolutely lovely to work with and really helps your ideas come to life to make your day totally yours. -

Traci G. Sent on 12/30/2023Gianna is the best.
Gianna was our wedding planner in 2020 and helped us handle all the ups and downs with ease. She was extremely flexible and helpful. Working with Gianna gave us access to her vast list of vendors, wedding rentals, and her experience. She is so caring, kind, professional, and efficient. We’ve also had close friends who used her to plan their wedding as well and it was a beautiful event. Their wedding also had to have some last minute changes due to weather and she made it all happen seamlessly! Can’t say enough about how great she is, definitely recommend!! 😊 -

Gianna was there to help us navigate each step of the wedding planning process, even in the midst of a global pandemic! She has a bunch of lovely rentals as well available to her clients. She is always willing to chat when it's needed most! Leading up the wedding day, I knew we were on the same page, so on the wedding day we didn't have to worry about a thing. Things turned out so perfectly and we couldn't be more thankful for all of her help and expertise! -

Gianna is INCREDIBLE! Our wedding was beautiful and had literally - LITERALLY - no issues at all. Gianna was a fabulous (& fun) partner in our planning experience and definitely went above and beyond in every facet. Decor help, charcuterie board arrangement, table settings, moving the wedding party and guests between settings, everything. 10/10 would work with Gianna again! -

Your wedding is kind of important, right?
I've had the chance to work with Wild and Lovely at many events. (I'm a DJ in the Northern California market)
Her weddings are always the best. By "best," I mean:
Organized - Absolutely
Super fun - Yup
Start on time - Yes. No one is more organized or prepared
Guests smiling the entire time - True, (maybe 1 grumpy person that complains to the DJ they're not playing his favorite song. I get it, but the other 99% are having a blast! Your DJ can handle it)
Vendor team on point - She'll help you find the "right" vendors and avoid the "not so good" ones.
Creative - For sure
Stress-Free - Definitely. Her timeline management is on point.
Super Fun - yea, (I know, the second time I listed fun)
Unique - Always. I look forward to seeing something I don't see all the time.
Lively - The vibes are always positive
Elegant & Emotional - Certainly! She designs ceremonies and receptions that are really memorable.
Polished - True. You want your chairs lined up and your linens on correctly. I pay attention to these details. It makes a difference!
I DJ a ton of weddings so I get to work with a lot of different planners. Gianna is my favorite! If you really want a beautiful, fun, stress-free, and unique wedding, please message Wild and Lovely. You deserve someone with her passion and experience.
